Serial mediation model for a hypothesized pathway to a hypertriglyceridemia event in both sexes. Legends: In this figure, c represents the total effect of the E2 level on hypertriglyceridemia, and c' is the residual effect of the E2 level on hypertriglyceridemia (independent of mediating effects). All analyses incorporated age, BMI, FBG, C-peptide, and ApoC2 as covariates. †P = 0.898, ‡P = 0.401, *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
